    Personally, the one thing I've had the most luck in collecting (besides coins) is debt. Infact the two go hand in hand quite well image

    On one of my visits before the Honorable Judge McDonald, I was there because some square nieghbor called the fuzz on my Rockabilly Shindig!

    The joint was jumpin and the cats were having a ball...


    I explained to the judge,

    "Hey daddy-o, my square neighbors probably listen to Pat Boone, they need to get with it!"

    Mcdonald replied, "Lucy what am I going to do with you, your the cutest thing"...

    The court erupted in laughter and he then gave me 20hrs community service with the Nuns at a local pantry...
    And man, them sisters love the HepKitty and they are way cool, I showed them a few dance steps after the work was done...

    I collect the elements of the periodic table in the shape of coins. See, there's an infinite number of obsessive-compulsive behaviors image

    My favorite so far: An octagonal Vulcan Blood of Surak in pure hafnium. The ONLY un-anodized one (natural hafnium finish). Unique. Boo ya.

    I got tired of getting credit card offers. So I decided to see how many of those little fake credit cards I could amass. I dont have an exact count, but I went through this month's junk mail today and pulled out twelve of them. The most popular, American Express Platinum with a total of seven. You got to hand it to them for persistance....

    I used to collect beer stiens. When I stopped , I had enough stines end to end 60 feet in length.. got married & 75% of the colletion left the house. the cats & children got 12% so now I have 12% on display in my home. After a couple sucessful coin auctions my wife started on me to sell my stiens. image
